This is a Very Good copy of the First English Editio, published a year after the American issue [Hubin, p. 41].

Cean text; 315 pages, with a four-page publisher catalog in the rear. Frontis illustration and six others within by Harold Piffard. Previous-owner signature on both the front paste-down and the FFEP, along with the date "1902."
